Spain drops all charges against former PRI chief Humberto Moreira

One could see the
writing on the wall in the Humberto Moreira case, when Spanish
prosecutors, dropped the appeal objecting to bail. And did so without
explanation.

Today, the judge in the
case, Santiago Pedraz, agreed to the provisional dismissal of the case opened
against Humberto Moreira, former president of the Institutional Revolutionary
Party (PRI) and former governor of the state of Coahuila, Mexico. Humberto
Moreira, led Coahuila from 2005 to 2011,
when he resigned to make his successful run for the PRI presidency.

Judge Pedaz in his
ruling did not find that Humberto was innocent of money laundering; rather he says it was Mexico’s burden to prove, or the United States, not Spain. He also said Spain has no jurisdiction to
investigate or charge Humberto with having ties to organized crime (Zetas).

The infamous politician
was arrested on January 15 in Madrid, accused of money laundering, embezzlement
of public funds, bribery and belonging to a criminal organization. He was released from prison on bail on January
23rd and returned home on February 4th.

Coahuila is the Mexican
state, once flourishing and financially sound with a top credit rating. That’s before Moreira became governor and the
money disappeared along with the good credit rating.

Two of his alleged conspirators
in financial improprieties, sit in U.S. prisons. Héctor
Javier Villarreal Hernández, once the treasurer of Coahuila plead guilty to
money laundering charges. Also Rolando González Treviño, the Coahuila media
mogul, accused of laundering millions.
It is guessed that either or both men would testify against Humberto if
he ever were to be tried in the U.S.

Moreira’s brother,
Ruben was voted into office following Humberto’s resignation, but for a year
prior to elections, Jorge Juan Torres López, was interim governor. He is also wanted, to face charges of money
laundering.

If Humberto would have
been tried in Spain, it was expected that the U.S. may file charges against him
and ask for extradition. Many of
Humberto’s “front” businesses are in the U.S. and U.S. banks were used as the
middle point for triangulation point for wire transfers, including those sent
to Spain.

When Humberto was given
bail in Spain, the prosecutor initially vowed to fight ruling vigorously.

It was
at this time the PRI party came to the defense of Humberto. They sent an attorney team to Spain with “proof”
the two companies the funds originated from, were bonafide companies. They argues that 200k USD was not an exorbitant
amount of money for the family to live on during their time in Spain.

The prosecutor dropped
the appeal.

Humberto quickly left Spain
and returned to Mexico where he announced his intentions of running for
political office, and had his eyes set on Coahuila. His brothers term expires in 2017.

As for the two front
businesses in question, the site of one has long been empty, the other is not the PR
business that t is supposed to be, but a 3 bay car wash in Saltillo. Neither or together are capable of the
type of revenue, from generating profits, that were sent to Humberto in Spain.

Furthermore, he does
not list eith of the “businesses” anywhere on his income tax returns.

Every dog has his day.....I'm sure that despite all that stolen money he has, his soul and conscious are rotting, no human being can live calmly knowing he is at fault for children dying of hunger and for hundreds of thousands of deaths from the drug war.

Spain is the Mexico of Europe. Corrupt as fuck. This is where Latin America got it from. Going from England to Spain is like us to Mexico. Nice beaches, weather, God forbid you have to count on the cops to save your ass. A lot of pharmacies will look past you not having a prescription if you slip the, a note

Assholes like this guy are worse than Chapo. Chapo is what he is - he doesn't pretend to be anything else. This fool thinks he is an upstanding citizen and leader of Mexico when in fact he is the worst hypocrite there is. Someone should bust a cap in his ass one of these days.

The funny thing is that people is going to vote for him again an stupedd state deserves this stupedd politicians, people shoul shoot him on sight and be free of corruption by themselves because EPN or any other president is not going to do nothing...
